Bastard’s Resurgence

Lu Zheng calmed down Nie Yong a little, and the atmosphere between Nie Yong and Lu Lun was barely harmonious.

Nie Yong is an official censor and has a close relationship with the prince. Not long ago, the Jiangnan power lords collectively fell to the prince because of a game with the king of Qin, helping the prince to insult the king.

Nie Yong felt that right now was an opportunity to further win the relationship between the Jiangnan power lords and the prince. He immediately volunteered and wanted to accompany Lu Zheng to visit the seniors from all walks of life.

At present, the main forces of Jiangnan Power in the capital are Gu Tiansheng of the Gu family, and the servant of the official worship department. They are the leading figures of Jiangnan in the capital. In addition, Zhang Rong of the Zhang family has already made official appointments and is free in Beijing. Business in the north too!

As for the Chen family, they have been completely alienated from the Jiangnan Gu, Zhang, and Lu families over the years, and they moved to the capital with their family. The Chen family staying in the Jiangnan are just some collaterals, and there is no need for Lu Zheng to visit them.

The actual situation may be more serious than imagined. Although it is approaching New Year's Eve, most of the yamen have been closed. In this situation, most people should be at home.

However, the greetings sent by Lu Zheng to the Gu family and the Zhang family were like stone sinking in the ocean, without any feedback. Ordinarily, the Jiangnan powers are in the same spirit, and Lu Zheng is the leader of the younger generation, and he has the fame of Xieyuan. It is too late for the parents to welcome him. How can he refuse people thousands of miles away?

There is no other reason, it must be related to what happened at the Fayuan Temple. In today's court, Dai Gao uses power and Manchu dynasty civil and military. Who dares to offend Dai Xiang?

Lu Zheng prevented Dai Xiang’s son Dai Shizhang from stepping off the stage at Fayuan Temple. This matter has been fully fermented in the capital. Except for those who watch the excitement on the sidelines, anyone who can have a little relationship with Lu Zheng. , I can't avoid it now!

Nie Yong just started to have a high spirits and a positive attitude. He was discouraged when Lu Zheng touched the nail a few times, and said: "Dai is a big thief, brother Zheng, this time you are probably going to suffer! In this situation, the teacher thinks you You should make your plans early. The prince is thirsty for talents, and hopes that the prince can protect you from the prince, you see..."

"Master Nie!" Lu Zheng took a deep breath, and said, "Well Dao is a blessing, not a curse. It is a curse that cannot be avoided. Since I am hit by this calamity, I will accept it calmly and plead with others. , Seeking asylum, what kind of ability?

Master Nie, I have my own decision on this matter, and I hope that the teacher can accomplish it! "

When Nie Yong heard Lu Zheng say this, his eyes widened. He stomped his feet and tried to persuade him, but he could not resist Lu Zheng's persistence. In anger, he couldn't help but walk away...

Lu Zheng was naturally in a bad mood when he returned to the Lu Mansion, and it happened that when Lu Lun came back from an outing, he was not in a good mood. When he arrived at the back house, he saw Mrs. Su and said, "Madam, this time you and my husband may really have to return to Jiangnan soon. I have encountered this from the beginning of Jiangnan to Beijing, hey...this is a big Chinese New Year, I wanted to go out and contact a few old people, who knows hehe, I will avoid seeing it!"

Seeing Lu Lun's depression, Mrs. Su smiled and said, "Master, there is no need to be pessimistic. The so-called adversity can see the truth, there are always people who are sentimental and righteous in the world!

No, Zhang Chengdong, the elder brother of the Zhang family, came to visit the mansion early, and I let Hong Qing accompany him! "

Lu Lun was stunned for a moment, and shook his head with a wry smile. He came to see Madam Su, originally wanting to see Madam Su's attitude. After all, this incident was caused by Lu Zheng. Lu Lun and Lu Zheng are a family, so naturally they will be prosperous. But from Mrs. Su's standpoint, would he think so?

When Lu Lun listened to Mrs. Su's words, he understood the general situation and took care of the overall situation. He was both gratified and guilty when he stood on the side of Su's house. When Lu Lun came to the capital, he was also a young man with ambitions!

At that time, what he thought was that one day, he would step on the sky, climb the Jinluan Temple, go in and out of the study room, stretch for the dawn of the world, do his best for Jiangshan Sheji, and be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor!

Time flies, and decades have passed in a blink of an eye. Up to now, Lu Lun is still only a small official of the fifth and sixth ranks, let alone climbing to the palace of Jinluan, he has only seen the emperor twice in his life.

As for the other people who go to the study, it is the people of dawn and the village of Jiangshan. It is only in the dream. The low-level officials are buried in the messy chores, day after day, year after year, boring but boring. Helpless.

Once a teenager, his hair was gray, and the waist that was once straight was already rickety now. With a long sigh, Lu Lun felt mixed feelings in his heart and almost cried.

It’s not at the right time. Lu Lun’s age was when the Jiangnan powers were suppressed. No matter how talented Lu Lun is, no matter how loyal, and no matter how hard he works, his life's destiny is doomed, who Let him be the son of the Gangnam Power Sovereign?

Right now, Lu Lun is old, but his descendants, Lu Ning and Lu Zheng are not old yet, especially Lu Zheng, who is just as young as Lu Lun back then. He went to the capital as Xie Yuan, not also for the sake of Have a good future? Isn't it also for your own ambitions?

However, Lu Zheng had only been here for a few days before he was secretly calculated. Once he fell into a desperate situation, he was embarrassed on all sides, and the storm was about to come. Lu Lun didn't know what to do!

At this time, his heart was extremely angry, and he was also very helpless. In today's Dakang Dynasty, who dares to offend Dai Xiang? Most of the civil and military people in the Manchu dynasty were Dai Xiang's disciples, like Lu Lun, who would never expect to be successful in a lifetime.

Chen Zhiqian, among the Jiangnan power lords, is now an official worshiper. He can climb up because of the fact that the Chen family has completely fallen to the Dai family over the years, and he is willing to be a running dog of the Dai family.

The dignified Jiangnan power lords have become other people's lackeys. The price is too great!

Lu Lun’s thoughts were complicated, and he immediately went to the living room in the backyard, where Lu Zheng and Zhang Chengdong had already seen it. Seeing Zhang Chengdong, Lu Zheng’s mood was extremely complicated. He walked forward and knelt forward and said: "Lu Zheng I have seen my uncle!"

Zhang Chengdong trembled, staring at Lu Zheng with wide eyes, and he couldn't calm down. He once remembered that when Lu Zheng first arrived in Yangzhou, Lu Zheng was so thin and humble that he was not worth mentioning.

In fact, Mrs. Zhang sent Lu Zheng to Yangzhou, and her intention was that she didn't want Lu Zheng to go back alive! At that time, all Zhang's family including Zhang Chengdong, who would have thought that Lu Zheng could have today?

When Zhang Chengdong was leaving, he left a way for Lu Zheng, but after Zhang Chengxi and Zhang Chengbei went back, they repeatedly harmed Lu Zheng. As a result, all the conspiracy and tricks failed. Lu Zheng not only did not die in Yangzhou, but became more alive. The more nourished, returned to Jinling as a small Sanyuan.

After arriving in Jinling, just a year later, Lu Zheng regained his life. The thin boy of the past has grown up. Look at Lu Zheng now. He is a talented person, personable, decisive, confident and unrestrained, and he is one of the best in Beijing. The son-in-law is not too much.

Zhang Chengdong secretly recalled all the descendants of the Zhang family, no one can compare with Lu Zheng!

"Zheng'er, my uncle is also far away in Beijing. There is a saying that going out is very difficult. People are in the rivers and lakes, and you can't help yourself. Reading the places you have not taken care of, I hope you don't take offense!" Zhang Chengdong said.

Lu Zheng nodded, and said, "Uncle, don't say that. Not long after I arrived in the capital, I wanted to visit you right away, but I was caught up in some mundane things.

A few days ago, at the Fayuan Temple Meeting, I had another misfortune. The current situation, everyone was afraid to avoid me, but my uncle dared to see me. My nephew was moved inexplicably and ashamed. "

"Haha!" Zhang Chengdong laughed, and said, "Uncle is just a merchant. People are as tall as people who don’t ask for help. If you are in the court, you have the power and authority. Those who do business with us will not enter the river. I am afraid that they will not enter the river. What are you doing?"

These few words of Zhang Chengdong were extremely chic, but Lu Zheng saw incomparable loneliness in his eyes. Zhang Chengdong is no ordinary person, just from the point that he knows Master Yan, this person is no ordinary person.

Lu Zheng was able to gain a foothold in Yangzhou and be able to meet Master Yan in Yangzhou. This is all Zhang Chengdong's kindness, and this kind of kindness is enough for Lu Zheng to remember his life.

Lu Zheng didn't know Zhang Chengdong's story, and he was unwilling to ask. At this moment, Lu Zheng was overwhelmed by himself, let alone how to repay En Yunyun, so all the conversations were not mentioned at this time!

Zhang Chengdong said: "Brother Zheng, there are a lot of difficulties, the current difficulties are not comparable to those of the past. Life and death can be overcome, and what difficulties can stop you?

Although my uncle is just a merchant, his ability to see people is never weaker than others. Those who see benefits and forget righteousness, seek benefits and avoid disadvantages, are not worth mentioning. Uncle believes that Brother Zheng can tide over the difficulties..."

Lu Zheng and Zhang Chengdong recounted their old times. Lu Lun came over, and he clasped his fists and saluted: "Brother Zhang, sins and sins, brothers came home, but I went out, what a serious sin!

Today I have instructed the kitchen to prepare a table of home-cooked meals in the evening. Brother brothers must save the meals anyway, and you and my brothers will enjoy the wine..."

Lu Lun has lived in officialdom for a long time, and his ability to deal with people is naturally familiar. In fact, although he and Zhang Chengdong live in the capital, they rarely meet each other.

Jiangnan Quanshu is incomparable with that year. It can be said that it is a mess of sand at the moment. In name, everyone is still in the same spirit. In fact, everyone has already swept the door and cared about others without flaws.

Besides, Zhang Chengdong is a businessman and Lu Lun is an official. The identities of the two are not equal anymore. Zhang Chengdong's business style is growing, and Lu Lun’s officialdom is lifeless, and there is no way to talk about who is good and who is bad. It’s just that he has nothing to do. Who of the two can take the lead in laying down their faces to visit each other?

Today, it was precisely because of Lu Zheng that this incident occurred, and Zhang Chengdong took the initiative to come to the door. This was the scene where the younger generations of Lu and Zhang called brothers and sisters, and the scene of drinking and chatting. From the current situation, I think of the four great powers when the power of Jiangnan was in its heyday. The relationship is intricately intertwined with each other, frequent and close contacts, that is already the old emperor calendar of adulthood!

Perhaps it was because of the immediate New Year’s Eve, and perhaps it was because of the open-mindedness of Lu Lun and Zhang Chengdong. The guests and hosts of the dinner had a great time and enjoyed themselves. They didn’t mention the dilemma caused by Lu Zheng at the moment. It never happened in general...
